Characterization of Two Marine Lignin-Degrading Consortia and the Potential Microbial Lignin Degradation Network in Nearshore Regions

ABSTRACT Terrestrial organic carbon such as lignin is an important component of the global marine carbon. However, the structural complexity and recalcitrant nature of lignin are deemed challenging for biodegradation. It has been speculated that bacteria play important roles in lignin degradation in...
